Is there a way to take the plastic cowl off without taking the wipers off?

under the wiper arm, near where they connect, there is a VERY small tab that should be hanging down. press down on the end of the arm (the base, not the blade) and pull the tab out. once you get it out, it should slide right up at you

no, you pull it outwards and the arm will slide off the splines
